Bryan Danielson is ready for Wrestle Kingdom.
Bryan Danielson returns to NJPW for the first time since 2004 at Wrestle Kingdom 18 when he takes on Kazuchika Okada in a rematch from their AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2 bout.
Speaking at the press conference ahead of the event, Danielson expressed his gratitude upon returning to the promotion.
"I just want to say how grateful I am to be here in Japan, especially New Japan. It's been almost 20 years since my last tour of New Japan. To be here now, at the Tokyo Dome...when I started professional wrestling, what I really wanted more so than main eventing WrestleMania in WWE, which I did twice, more so than anything, I wanted to be a star in New Japan Pro Wrestling. 20 years after my last tour, I get to wrestle Okada in the Tokyo Dome for Wrestle Kingdom," he said.
Danielson previously defeated Okada at Forbidden Door 2.
